Deputies say Kayla Ellen Lowndes, 22, of Fort Myers, and Laura Gordon, 34, of Lehigh Acres, were using the website www.backpage.com to advertise four-handed massages, according to a Lee County Sheriff’s Office report.

An undercover detective made contact with the women and agreed to pay $250 for a massage.

The detective said he then met up with the women at a residence in Bonita Springs, where they stripped and began to give him an erotic massage, before a take-down team entered the residence and took the women into custody.
